Any Fox dealer in your area can pre-order it for you. Cycle Center or Maxim will be stocking 360. Look forward to seeing you in it.
The Youth colors are similar to the Men's adult stuff. All images are from Fox's website . Looks like some of the stuff Deegan was wearing in that mud race. I like a lot of it better than the stuff from a couple years ago. It feels more like Fox gear did when Pete fox was still there.
The chassis updates to both the 180 and 360 are massive improvements over the previous generations. A ton more stretch while still being a bit more of a relaxed fit. Good leap in the right direction for average Joe's.
I totally dig this collection and in my opinion one of the best of the last 4 / 5 years. Also the Bell helmets look really good. Together with Troy Lee Designs there is something now that look better than the Alpinestars stuff, which is underwhelming this year.

This looks pretty good.
Flexair Arc is nice, everything else is just a bit boring.
Has Fox updated Flexair in the past few years? How does it compare to SuperTech from AStars?
Also, my wife is dying for vented gear that is not pink or baby blue.
I really like the '27 Fox collection. Probably my favorite since the 2020 line. Looking forward to the updated 180/360. I've also read somewhere that the flexair chassis is being updated for '28.
I'd like to see them have a set of two with the old fox head.
The one they are using is closer to the original. I think You mean the Fox head that was used in the 90's up until just a few years or so ago?
I liked that one better too. The new one is symmetric and closer to the 1970's one I believe. I remember seeing something come out about the change and going back to their heritage. On some designs I see the advantage of a symmetrical logo. Helps with placement and not having any funny spacing. But I feel like the gear with the 90's fox head feels more like real fox gear .
It was starting to look like the knock off fox stuff I used to see at flea markets for a while. This years line has moved away from the flea market look and has more of a classic Fox feel as far as my opinion. I'm glad to see the designs look more like Fox designs to me, but I think that using a mix of the previous head and the current one would result in better looking gear overall. I think the current head works on a lot of stuff. But I think that same stuff would look better with the classic head instead.
Looks like Jorge was wearing the 360 Temper-Yellow today. Looks good.
Yes, sorry, the 90's, 2000's one.
Deegs black kits have been sick, along with the purple. Prados too kits too from last week and this weekend. Need another remake of the stuff rc wore when he turned pro and what dowd wore in the early 2000s.
Thoughts on this gear? Kind of liking this color combo..
I like it! Most of the new A-stars gear has too much going on, but this was is simple.
Looks pretty good 👍
Yup, I was going to post that Deegz black kits this weekend looked sick and you beat me to it
The state of contemporary mx gear in terms of design is terrible in my opinion. Everyone is too scared to make a bad design so they all make the same boring stuff.
The Fox gear from the mid to late 2000s that RC and Stew wore was sick, but those graphics would probably be considered too busy to put out now. The stuff with the lines was sick.
No Fear was the best at doing the cleaner looking gear, but they still had some cool busier designs.
I've seen most of the new 27 gear and AStars is probably the best, Leatt, O'Neal, and Thor are OK and the rest of it is pretty bad imo. I think the 27 Fox range is absolutely abysmal.
I wish gear brands would put out something that's actually unique instead of the same bland corporate designs. I'd have half a mind to start my own brand if the market wasn't currently so oversatured with other startup brands.
I even really liked that super colourful messy gear trend from the early 2010s that people here all seem to hate, I think I've heard it referred to as "unicorn vomit"
The stuff Thor did with Volcom was probably the best collection of gear, followed by the Fox and No Fear gear I mentioned earlier, and maybe Thor when they still used their good logo instead of that soulless corporate logo they use now. The throwback gear Thor did a couple years ago was cool and the RC throwback Fox did was great, I'd still prefer new good and unique designs but if they can't give us that then the stuff they used to make when gear designs didn't suck is fine.
But yeah, I wish brands were more willing to venture out away from the plain stuff. Even this new set of Fly gear, it's not good but at least they tried something different and I'd much rather wear this than a set of gear with a logo and a line running down each side of it. Actually, I wouldn't. But I appreciate that they tried something different.
AOT is worth looking at.. they have so many different designs and colors everything from unicorn stuff to bland two color designs that are popular today.. and a lot of other fun designs that nobody else offers.
The fit of their gear is perfect. it's not super tight, just fits like mx gear should imo. I get every set with vented pants/jersey since I can always add another layer beneath if it's cold. I have 7 different gear sets of theirs, waiting on a couple more to arrive.
This is just a tiny selection of all they offer.. most of it is pretty basic if not plain.. which is popular now I suppose..

I had a look through their site and I hate to be a snob but I feel like their designs are poorly executed, although some are pretty funny. I probably wouldn't buy a set anyway since anything I'm buying outside of Australia is going to come with exorbitant shipping fees. In my original post I was keeping my talking points to the major brands for that reason, but I do think Bud Racing makes cool looking gear, and I think you can also get your name and number sublimated on the jersey. Although they don't make super messy unique kits, they do venture out into busier more colourful designs.
Bud Racing kits that I like for example:
It's funny calling our (THOR) new logo "soulless and corporate", when the same team that created it are the same people who created the Volcom collection with RV2 years ago - but that's insider knowledge, I wouldn't expect anyone to really know it, haha.
On that note, before our previous design director retired (after 32 years with the brand), I had to consult him on the change - "look, we all know that this half mask logo is your baby for the past 17 years, but is it possible that THOR could use something that is a bit more modern, to represent the performance-oriented, racing brand that we truly are?" His response was simple, "I'm a designer first and foremost, if this team is going to modernize and bring the brand into the future, then I am all for it!"
And it was not easy, nor a light decision; there were about six months of heavy internal fighting before we arrived here, with an icon that we truly feel represents performance / sport / racing, while embracing our heritage in which the logo pulls direct inspiration from the eyes and nose of the original THOR viking mask. It may not be for everyone, but the new era of THOR is here to stay and racing only one direction - forward.
Back to your original point - THOR has been pushing harder and harder with some unique graphics and color palettes over the past few years and it doesn't seem to resonate as well at the consumer level as more "standard" race kits, that focus on clean lines and big branding. Just a sign of the times, I suppose.
I was hoping Fox would be releasing this 180 black/blue/white but it never was. Design and color combination goes hard
I just clicked away from the ad and now I don't see it anymore, but I swear the new FXR banners feature team PC riders. Are they Mitch's new gear sponsor? Kudos to them, if so. Also, kudos to them for having a simple website that shows you what the gear looks like: https://fxrracing.com/pages/gear-sets
EDIT: Sorry, it's Marchbanks and an unnamed rider wearing #20 on a KXF450SR. Can't be Kayden Minear, right? Isn't he going to ride for Star?
I'm glad I've had some experience in Photoshop, because I need it to see what the Troy Lee gear sets look like when worn together. Their website doesn't make it easy. TLD seems to like the whole "mix & match" idea, which is fine, but I always wonder if the pants are the same color as the jersey. It's not easy when the names for your colors are things like "Steel," "Gunmetal," "Titanium," "Ocean," "Tide," "Storm," and "Navy," all are different shades of blue, and 2026 Navy isn't the same as 2027 Navy. 😵
I think that #20 is Broc Tickle . I think he has been a test rider for the Kawasaki factory team for a while now.
Good call. You're probably right.

That's Tickle. He's an FXR rider. The PC Kawi guys are still in Fox.
